This year saw the debut of numerous anime series, only a few of which were successful. Undead Unluck, which made its debut this year as well, has emerged as one of the most unexpected anime releases of 2023 despite a slow beginning. Additionally, an English dub of this series is scheduled for this month.
For those who prefer to watch it in English, it has been confirmed that this dub will be available on December 13. The story follows Fuuko and Andy’s shenanigans which is particularly interesting, because of their unusualness and out-of-the-box circumstances.
Along with the English dub release date, the series also revealed the cast of the English dub, which includes a well-known name. The cast of the English dub includes Amber Lee Conners, the English voice actress behind the voice of Mei Mei, a popular character from one of the biggest anime series Jujutsu Kaisen.
